Name: Small Thoughts In A Big Head
Duration: P00H03M42S
Description: Wrote this to prove to myself that I could write a better song than another kid at my school. I thought their lyrics were meaningless and trying to be deep so I tried to do that. At the end of the day I made a song that's pretty obviously about growing and that kid ended up making on of my favorite records of all time. (9/12/21)

lyrics

This is my only available paper
So I gotta make this one count
I have fought many men
With a warrior sound
I built a million castles
That were all torn down at once
I met a crazy man
Who made me a dunce

(Chorus)
Today I flew an airplane
And crashed it into the ground
I punched all of the monsters under my bed
Until they came crashing down
I traveled a thousand miles
While I was sitting
Maybe I am awesome
Or maybe I'm just kidding

The demons ran away
Coz I can see in the dark
Fire doesn't burn me
Coz I learned how to make a spark
I can never fall
Coz I learned how to fly
I can never live
Coz I learned I will die

(Chorus)

I have never stopped
Since I was pushed to start
Maybe it is what I was built to do
Now with the right tools
You can tear me apart
Why did I have to learn that it was you?

(Chorus)
